Just for giggles, I just looked up Joe Biden, John McCain, Barack Obama and Sarah Palin on LinkedIn.
Here’s my connectedness. I was surprised.
Huh… I’m 2 degrees from Barack Obama.
… and 2 degrees from John McCain.
Apparently, I’m this far from Sarah Palin:
… but I’m guessing that’s because she’s on McCain’s friends list.
Joe Biden? Can’t find him on LinkedIn.



Oh god…
I just searched for my own presidential connections. Three hops from Obama, Hillary Clinton, Ron Paul, and Kevin Bacon. More troubling is that I’m a mere degrees away from McCain and Sarah Palin. See what happens when you end up knowing someone in highschool who turns out to be a young republican? They become an old republican. Thankfully, I’m not connected to George Bush at all.
Oh, and no Biden for me either.
